Alan read a total of 32 books over 4 months. If Alan has read 48 books so far, how many months has he been with his book club? Solve using unit rates.

To solve this problem using unit rates, we first need to determine how many books Alan reads per month. 

We know Alan read 32 books in 4 months, so the unit rate of books per month is:

\[
\frac{32 \, \text{books}}{4 \, \text{months}} = 8 \, \text{books

Learn how to solve a unit rate problem by calculating how many months Alan has been with his book club based on the number of books he's read. This example involves proportions and ratios, ideal for students in Grades 5-7.
